What is there to say about the late Deacon Jones, who coined the term "sack," who had one of the best nicknames in all of sports (the "Secretary of Defense"), and who remains among the most fearsome pass rushers to ever play football? Lots, actually. (See here, here, and here.) But we'd rather just roll the tape.

We obviously didn't see Jones play, but something very clear emerges from watching his highlights: despite the game being prodigiously different during his era, Jones would have been a star even today. That's the best tribute we can offer.
